CODENAME Jody

This EP is a follow-up to our first EP, Codename Jody. We've strived to preserve that cinematic essence while venturing into various styles, culminating in our high-energy synthwave/darksynth track 'Pantera Power.' It's been an incredibly fun and rewarding journey, working hard to craft the best possible sound for this release.

The 1980s… 
In a high-tech lab in an undisclosed government building, lead virologist Jody Campbell has just discovered a groundbreaking development in one of her projects, codenamed: DS-10. It is unknown as to exactly what the capabilities of the DS-10 bacteria are, but it is sufficient enough to flag down the attention of an enigmatic army officer by the name of Colonel Arnold, a ruthless and reprehensible individual who plans to weaponize DS-10 for his own cryptic agenda. Knowing that Colonel Arnold will soon take possession of the DS-10, Jody destroys all but one sample during a harrowing escape, inciting an all-out manhunt by Colonel Arnold and his squad of commandos seeking to take down Jody and take possession of the DS-10. Seeking assistance in her fugitive plight, Jody unwittingly crosses paths with a pair of teenage BMX heads named Ben and Ted, who divulge to her rumors about a mercenary driver who goes by the name of Spencer, a former Corporal in the Marines who may be of potential aid in her quest to keep DS-10 out of the wrong hands. 
Short on options and low on time, Jody tracks down the elusive Spencer at a nightclub called "Arcades & Dreams" where the bodacious and sassy proprietor, Mike, leads her to an underground base that serves as Spencer’s headquarters. It is here where Jody is shown Spencer’s signature tool of his trade: a souped-up De Tomaso Pantera, equipped with a barrage of high-tech computers and weaponry that rival any other military equipment on the market. Spencer, agreeing to assist Jody as she plans on exposing Colonel Arnold and his agenda to the rest of the world, finds himself compromised when it’s discovered that Ben and Ted tailed Jody to the nightclub and snuck their way into Spencer’s underground fortress. With secrets exposed, and no other choice but to join forces, Ted, Spencer, Ben, and Jody work together as they trek their way across the country, with Colonel Arnold and his band of soldiers in hot pursuit and leading to a litany of adventures drenched in an adrenaline and backed by a pulse-pounding beat.

The demo you can hear is a direct render / audio print of the project which includes a basic mastering to match the indecent loudness of the original track.

Don't hesistate to make any suggestion in order to improve the project.
I would be very happy to help and share tips with you guys.
